We are certain that taking these steps today will enable us to better manage the transition from development stage to producing significant revenues, thanks to the imminent opening of our large 28,000 sq. ft. cultivation facility in Las Vegas. The licensed cultivation operations of the company involve skills and strategies that are distinct from our drug development efforts. Mr. Poss will continue the success of past months' efforts, managing the regulatory and reporting requirements of a public company, and focusing on the construction and development and expansion of our licensed cannabis cultivation facility in conjunction with our partners at Pacific Leaf. He also will lead our efforts expand our cultivation activities to other states."
